random sub-par blogging

 I got a new rug.
I love it. It was inexpesive and it is an indoor/outdoor rug which means easy to clean.
I haven't been home long enough this week to love on it.
Or to worry about the back couch cushions that I need to replace/remake.
The sun hasn't been out long enough to get good pictures of anything so this one will have to do.

**********************************

I am obessessed with a piece of country property that includes a house that I am pretty sure would quailfy me to be on an episode of Frontier House.
I am also still in love with this house.
And I can't stop thinking about that one.
Maybe once we drive out there I will see all it's flaws and let it go.
Untill then....
 **************************************

I love having my sister here and my having my 2 boys and a house full of neighbor kids. It feels right.
I also still get on the foster kid website and fantizise about adopting them all. At once.
There is part of my brain and heart that doesn't understand why I can't. But mostly I do.
 For now.

*******************************************

I have a wisdom tooth that needs to come out.
It's gonna have to wait.

******************************************

I wish I could take the day off to stay home and bask in Royal Wedding Bruhaha.
Yes, I am that girl.
You should have seen the stacks of Princess Di magazines clippings and books I had as a girl.

Planting Dandelions: Field Notes From a Semi-Domesticated Life
My pal Kryan just released her book and is getting great reviews.
I am beyond happy for her.
Cannot wait to read it and love it and hopefully give one away...?? Fingers crossed.

So much more to tell. First, though I must get my beauty sleep. Or something like it.
Thanks for indulging me these ramblings.

This may be one of my most favorite Jolly Goode posts.

I like the way you think, lady.

Oops. Um. That's me up there, liking the way you think.

I love your new rug, and I love that you have a typewriter on the coffee table.
Now I am wondering where you got that pretty rug - and how much it was?
(If I am not totally rude in asking?)

I love the idea of you living in a frontier house. It would be the loveliest frontier house, for sure!

Is Frontier House still on?
